STEP 4. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON PCB
Remove the protective lm and place thermal pads on the PCB as
shown on the picture. A spare thermal pad is included.
For thermal pad 2, adjust and cut length
according to MOSFET chips.
Pad 1: 13x160x1.5mm
Pad 2: 20x120x1.5mm
Carefully position the water block onto the graphics card. During the
process please make sure you align the mounting holes on the PCB
with the holes on the water block.
Make sure to lay the GPU with the waterblock at down without resting on
the PCI bracket. Do not use too much force by pressing the block down to
the PCB. Chip dies are prone to cracking.
OPTION a:
M2.5x7
M2.5x5
STEP 6a. INSTALLING THE BACK PLATE
Align the backplate holes with the waterblock and use the included
M2.5x8 screws (shown in red) to tighten the block to the back plate.
Screw the 4x M2.5x5 (shown in blue) to tighten the block to the GPU
core.
Make sure to remove the protective lm on both sides of the
thermal pads.
BEFORE PROCEEDING, PLEASE CHOOSE BETWEEN THE FOLLOWING:

Connect the RGB LED cable for the GPU before proceeding to the
next step.
This step only apply’s to RGB equipped GPU’s.
For RGB LED control (software), please refer to the user manual of your
graphic card.
STEP 7b. INSTALLING THE BACK PLATE
Route the RGB LED cable between the water block and GPU. Carefully
position the water block onto the graphics card. During the process
please make sure you align the mounting holes on the PCB with the
holes on the water block.
STEP 6b. PLACE THE BLOCK ON TO THE GRAPHICS CARD
Align the backplate holes with the waterblock and use the included
M2.5x7 screws (shown in red) to tighten the block to the back plate.
Screw the 4x M2.5x5 (shown in blue) to tighten the block to the GPU
core.
OPTION b:
STEP 6. PLACING THE BLOCK ON TO THE GRAPHICS CARD
STEP 7. INSTALLATION OF FITTINGS AND TUBING
Screw in the two G1/4 threaded male ttings, attach the liquid cooling tubes
and
connect the water block(s) into the cooling circuit. Phanteks recommends
Phanteks
ttings with the Phanteks Glacier Series water blocks.
DO NOT FORGET TO PLUG THE REMAINING TWO OPENING.
FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, WE RECOMMEND TO MATCH THE INLET/OUTLET
STEP 5. CONNECTING THE RGB LED (IF CONNECTOR IS PRESENT)
Make sure to connect the RGB LED cable from the waterblock to the GPU PCB

Use the included 4x M2.5x5 screws and washers (shown in blue) and
11x M2.5x8 screws (shown in red) to tighten the block to the GPU core.
STEP 4. PLACING THERMAL PADS ON PCB
Place thermal pads on the circuit board as shown on the picture below. Refer to
numbering in previous picture when applying thermal pads of di
erent sizes or
thickness. Phanteks made sure to provide customers with more than adequate
quantity of thermal pads to complete this step.
FOR THERMAL PAD 2, ADJUST AND CUT LENGTH ACCORDING
TO GPU VDD VRM CHIPS.

STEP 8. INSTALLALTION OF FITTINGS AND TUBING
Screw in the two G1/4 threaded male ttings, attach the liquid cooling
tubes and connect the water block(s) into the cooling circuit. Phanteks
recommends using Phanteks tting with the Phanteks Glacier Series
water blocks.
- For the best performance, we recommend to match the inlet/outlet conguration of the water block.
- Do not forget to plug the remaining two openings.
- Always perform a leaktest before starting your computer.
Make sure to lay the GPU with the waterblock at down without resting on
the PCI bracket. Do not use too much force by pressing the block down to
the PCB. Chip dies are prone to cracking.
Connect the 2 RGB connectors to the RGB LED strips.

Phanteks recommends you follow the steps below before you start your water loop setup
1. Test all your hardware before you start your water loop setup to make sure it is in working condition.
2. Plan out your loop to save some time.
3. Flush and rinse your water blocks with distilled water prior to use to ensure a clean loop.
4. Make sure that everything is unpowered and unplugged, either at the power supply end or hardware’s end before you
start your leak test.
5. Use paper towels under ttings and joints to avoid damage if there are leaks.
6. With the ll port open, run the loop for approximately 24 hours to completely bleed the air out of the loop.
